    Your cousin did exactly what I’ve always wanted to do. I’ll never be able to afford a house build while already having a mortgage…but I COULD afford the land and a garage apartment.

    Everyone tells me it’s a stupid idea but it’s the only way I see it being possible - and it clearly works.

      Just gotta make sure it’s ok with the municipality first because you’re building the garage as being inhabitable and then you’re building a second inhabitable building on the same lot, which might not be accepted.
